Will the car be damaged if I forget to change the windshield washer fluid?

Forgetting to change the windshield washer fluid will not damage the car. You can add hot water to the washer fluid reservoir to slowly melt the existing fluid, then use it up and replace it with antifreeze windshield washer fluid. Selection of windshield washer fluid: Different seasons and climates require different types of windshield washer fluid. The choice mainly depends on temperature. For example, in winter, you need to use antifreeze washer fluid as regular fluid can easily freeze in cold weather. In summer, especially in southern regions where there are more insects, it's advisable to use washer fluid with insect repellent properties. Volume of windshield washer fluid: Windshield washer fluids generally come in standard volumes, which vary by brand. When purchasing washer fluid, pay attention to these details. If you need to switch brands, make sure to check the volume specifications first.
